"I understand how you feel, but if you put those feelings into words they will turn into lies." - after the quake (Murakami, 2000)
........................................................................
I'm just another math-loving, mountain-climbing physicist (there are more of us than you'd think!). I am 27, living in Vancouver BC, And even though I am Canadian, I'm not sorry................................................................
As part of my duties as physicist and mathematician, I have embarked on a quest to solve the n-body problem. I chose it for two reasons, mainly. The first is that it's awesome, and the second is that it is quite impossible, and I appreciate the challenge. Bring it on, universe. Bring it on................................................................

Now, an interesting anecdote on how I ended up on imgur in the first place: t'was the wintery February of, well, last winter. I was a young, hadsome, physics undergrad, toiling away at his experimental physics lab at the time. My experiment was simple, straight forward, and beautiful, even. It was chaos. And so it happened, that while analyzing the data, I decided to animate the results, showing the descent into chaos of a previously order-preserving system. And after much searching and testing and wandering and pondering and a little bit of wondering, it was imgur that I found fit to host those gifs. And then the gallery appeared to me, engulfed in flames and yet not burning, and I wondered to myself: how can this beeeeee? Is he the Quisatz Haderach?

Oh and the gifs of the chaos experiment are here: http://imgur.com/a/rPgAj#2
